Quick HOWTO : Extend a filesystem in AIX command line

Suppose you want to extend /usr file system to 4GB


chfs -a size=4G /usr
or
chfs -a size=4000M /usr


or you want to add some more space like 2GB with existing size
chfs -a size=+2G /usr 


You can extend the root file system same way. Suppose the new size you want is 2GB, then


chfs -a size=2G / 
or
chfs -a size=2000M /


Hope this will be helpful :)
